I remember when Senna won in Australia in 1993. They beat Ferrari for the most wins in F1 history. Sad to think it was his last. Joe R said to Senna on the race start “If you win this one, I will love you forever”. Still brings a tear to my eye.
Excuse my ignorance but what does Jonny do now days?… Claire run the team… but Jonny seams like well grounded guy (knowledgeable) wouldn’t he help greatly running the family business? Maybe he does, I don’t know…
Grrat stuff once again. A magical weekend. Frank's 70th birthday celebration, Ginny with him, in Spain where Frank started in F1 with Piers, Pastor on top form against Fernando in all his pomp. Merc & Lewis gave Frank a great birthday gift! In my living room, I couldn't sit down throughout the race. I was too excited (at 46 years old!). Then, as Claire said, "We set fire to the garage!". Such great British irony! Thanks so much Jonny & Peter.

Great recollection of history from this formidable team
LORD MALDONADO WILL RISE AGAIN
THE LORD HIMSELF. ALL PRAISE
You’ve excelled yourself Peter, I could listen to Jonny all day. His knowledge of the sport is phenomenal.

Enjoying the series, but the special effects are a bit overboard.
I just loved that race, what a crazy Sunday afternoon in Spain.

You have to agree that there was something about that weekend that made the result just perfect!
Did Williams cheat in this race?
